More videos please! There's a deaf man that comes into the museum I work at and from the little I know from your videos I had a slow but insightful conversation with him and he thanked me and asked I Lern more auslan, so I'm trying. Thanks your videos helped me make his day.
Thank you for your videos, I have a regular deaf customer where I work and she smiles so brightly when I do these basic signs. Looking forward to more videos!
I would love a video with basic sentences for customer service, such as taking an order and clarifying order, giving change etc. Thank you, your videos are wonderful 👍
Thank you for explaining things so patiently. I like that you break each sentence down into each sign and then run them together a couple of times. Saves me needed to keep rewinding!!!!
Abbey, your strength is your experience learning Auslan growing up to sign with your dad. You are so easy to listen to, and it is easy to understand your instructions. You are very relatable. Truly, you will make a good teacher on UA-cam or in a classroom. Just want to thank you.
For a number of years I have been Santa at Christmas for many groups in my regional community. This year I will be visiting young and old people who are physically and mentally challenged. At 73, I hope 5 months will give me enough time to learn the basics.
Thank you so much for making a video that contains all the parts for asking for and offering assistance. I am learning so when I can’t hear I can still communicate and be communicated with, and I did not expect to find that as a parcel in one video that I can share with caregivers. This will be so valuable
Thankyou for this! I am a swim instructor in AUS and one of my students and their parents use Auslan, so grateful I can come on YT and find lessons ❤ and grateful there are people like you who are out there helping us to learn 🎉
Hope you keep posting, this series has helped me realise how good I am at Auslan, im loolking at being an interpriter for a news agency because of you.
Hi I just wanted to say that I am happy to come across your channel. I work in customer service and get customers who are hearing impaired and I have been wanting to freshen up on my auslan so I can help them better, so thank you.
I have been really fascinated my whole life with sign language. I looked into learning it probably 6 years ago but there was only really American sign language videos I could find. There were classes but not close to me and it was a bit expensive if you weren't deaf. My daughter and I created our own signs to talk when we weren't supposed to, or give her fight tips sparring at karate. Great to see your videos here, I am a slow learner but really keen.
You're an absolutely wonderful teacher! Choosing phrases that reuse previously learned signs to reinforce them is brilliant. Would love it if you did a whole course, though I understand that takes a lot of time! I also wonder if you could do a video of emergency phrases. Things like "is there danger/danger over there", "are you hurt/I'm hurt/they're hurt/I'm in pain", "where's a first aid kit/defibrillator", "fire", "ambulance", "police". Anything which would help communicate with a Deaf/non-vocal person if there is an emergency situation
Hi Abbey, I'm so glad I stumbled upon your videos. I learnt so much in just a few videos, hope you keep them coming. I'm partially deaf and hoping to become fluent in Auslan sometime in the future, so I can teach my kids too ❤
I think that will happen to me too. But I've wanted to learn singing/ Auslan since 1978...what a fool for listening to ppl that can speak hear & see... does anyone want to meet up to practice at a café out West?
Thank you so much, you were my first video to learn and you make it easy, please keep going you don’t know how much this is helpful for my customers, I really appreciate your help and I will be waiting for more.
I am preparing to tutor a U3A group in Auslan and as I will be more of a beginner than most of them your videos are a wonderful resource for the task. I can maybe appear to be knowledgable.!
Thank you for making these videos. I find them so easy to understand and have picked up it up quickly! Looking forward to learning more with your guidance 😊
Thank you so much! This has been so helpful for learning! Would you mind doing a sort of recap at the end of the videos to go over what was learnt? :))
This is such a great video! I enrolled in Tafe Auslan and these explainations are amazing- more content in 13mins than we would get in 2hrs 😅 Like actually explaining the specifics of the sign rather than just showing us- life changing! I've lost my voice so I'm re-learning now 🙈
thanks so much for these! they're so insightful and helpful. I would love to learn more about likes/dislikes, and things like consent ('stop', 'do want', 'don't want', etc). I talk to a lot of children and that sort of stuff is great to teach.
Great Video😀 you are such a great teacher and easy to follow! Is it possible for you to do a video with just some basic words, such as Family, food, drink, toilet shower stuff like that?
That was very easy to follow, which was awesome thank you so much. My daughter is studying to be a paramedic this year, would you be able to make a video that covers the basics of someone being hurt? So are you in pain? Can you show me where it hurts? What happened? Are you allergic to anything? Are you scared of needles? Is someone hurting?That’s sort of thing, I think that would be extremely useful to her and I’d love to learn that as well, thanks!!! 😊
You might find Asphyxia's videos helpful. If you expand the description, you can see what phrases/words are being demonstrated ua-cam.com/video/5IDHiWZGSME/v-deo.html
Thanks alot for this , i help out with our local little athletics club and i have a 13 yr old deaf athlete , these beginner vids have helped me communicate with her alot better , cheers again.
I am very lucky because my mother has a sign language course paid for cause she is a teacher but these videos definitely helped me before that and my BFF and I surprised her Nanna by sending a video to her. I taught my best friend some after learning from you
I’m learning sign language because I’ve been losing my voice recently, sometimes I can whisper really quietly but that isn’t really very helpful 😅 And I thought I should learn a way of commutation that doesn’t require talking! So this has been super helpful to learn some of the basics!!
god im so thankful for you!!!! ive been stressing about learning for my auslan class and cant find any tutors and this is really helping me understand with my learning style
Thank you so much for making these videos and explaining everything so well…I like your little tricks for remembering certain signs. We have a deaf tradesman working on building our house and I love being able to sign hello, introduce myself. I hope it makes him feel more included as most of the others do not sign. I would like to know how to offer to buy him a coffee (including latte, flat white, sugar) or a cold drink, when I do a coffee/cold drink run for all the tradies onsite. Thanks Again
I am so glad i found your videos but youve been inactive for 2 years. Your the best at explaining auslan. Im trying to learn to teach my baby as a way of communication before he can talk as well as growing up learning auslan at the same time as english. I wish you could do some more videos?
Thankyou for teaching me the basic steps of sign language i just met the most beautiful girl in the world and she is deaf so i’m trying my very best to learn sign language so this video helped me alot thankyou ❤️
Hello! I’m Japanese and i want to communicate with AUSLAN. So I will be learn on your video 🌷also your video is easy to understand ☺️My English is still bad but I want to go to Australia and communicate with English and AUSLAN so I will do my best🌱 Thank you. From japan 🍙
That was so much fun leaning that thank you so much Abby I show my carer and she love Learning it to we both can’t wait to learn more thanks Abby your a awesome teacher
What a great tutorial, clearly explained and super easy to follow, thank you so much and PLEASE tell me you will be doing more more ASL vidz. Again many thanks 👏
Hi Abbey, thank you so much for your videos, they’re so amazing and helpful. Could you please do a video about asking for help with schoolwork? For example, I use Auslan with my teacher to help me learn and I was wondering if you could help me with asking things like: Can I have some help please? And what do I add? Things like that
I can help for dree thru technology , so reach out and I can guide you, I know hundredths of signs , 37 years worth, no, i am not deaf (i worked with a deaf friend for 37 years!, I am a 67 year ole fun grandpa , fluent in Spanish, I talian and AUslan
Can you please do a video on questions and answers in a first conversation? As in "how old are you?" "Do you know/sign english?" "I know QLD sign language" etc :) thanks for your videos! You're an amazing teacher!
Hi, Thankyou so much for Al these videos! They have been so helpful! I was wondering if you could do a “classroom” video? I’m a teacher and would love to see some examples of sentences that would be common in the classroom. In case you happen to read this and are able to make a video I thought I’d put down some suggestions - can I go to the toilet? - go to class - why are you late? - my name is Mrs/mr/miss (name) or principal (name) - please see me after class - homework is due on (day of week) - recess / lunch - English / maths/ science etc …
Thank you for this. I am autistic and have always finger spelled but over time for various reason I have lost quite a lot of my hearing and I was given hearing aides and zero resources on how to learn more sign or who to talk to about the differences etc. I sort of just got assessed and then left to figure it out.
My girlfriend who is deaf told me that slowly is with the pointer finger instead of the whole hand, it might be because im from Tassie but yeahhh. Anyways thank you for the videos, it helps so much!
I don't think they're too different, you could probably still communicate with deaf/non-speaking people in NSW, but there's a website called signbank that sometimes shows what state it's from if there's a difference!
Video with reverse insert so we can see what sign looks like from our view would help. Still great video. Thanks. I am 73 and need all the help I can get. I am Santa at Christmas.

Thank you so much. Love your videos. You’re an excellent teacher.
This is such a great video! I enrolled in Tafe Auslan and these explainations are amazing- more content in 13mins than we would get in 2hrs 😅 Like actually explaining the specifics of the sign rather than just showing us- life changing! I've lost my voice so I'm re-learning now 🙈
You have a way of teaching that is so easy to understand.! I’m currently learning level 1, however I your way of teaching makes more sense to me!!!
thanks so much for these! they're so insightful and helpful. I would love to learn more about likes/dislikes, and things like consent ('stop', 'do want', 'don't want', etc). I talk to a lot of children and that sort of stuff is great to teach.
Great video and you give me time to take it in without having to pause the video.
I did a course with Lisa Mills and learnt Auslan colour, numbers, greetings but I found this clip helpful for specific age and time
Great Video😀 you are such a great teacher and easy to follow! Is it possible for you to do a video with just some basic words, such as Family, food, drink, toilet shower stuff like that?
Please make a video for customer service/ food service, you’re an excellent teacher and i want to take orders for deaf customers at my job ❤️
Thank you for this video. It was very helpful and informative. You're very good at this. Please continue to upload more videos ❤
That was very easy to follow, which was awesome thank you so much.

Would this work for NSW bc I live here and yay said in a previous video that it is different
I don't think they're too different, you could probably still communicate with deaf/non-speaking people in NSW, but there's a website called signbank that sometimes shows what state it's from if there's a difference!
Hi Abbey I love your videos they are amazing. How many videos have you made? I seem to only be able to find 4.
This is great! Is there any difference between doing it with your right or left hand or are hands interchangeable?
this was superhelpful ty
Would this be used in Brisbane?
I know a person at my school who is deaf and I wanna talk to them since know one tries to learn and talk to them.
There are slight differences across states but yes, this is QLD sign!
Video with reverse insert so we can see what sign looks like from our view would help. Still great video. Thanks. I am 73 and need all the help I can get. I am Santa at Christmas.
